Did you know that trucks move around 2 billion tons of freight domestically in India every year? That’s close to 60% of all freight tonnage transported in the India including rail, maritime, and air. That’s an astounding amount of stuff – India would be crippled without trucks. And it’s getting even bigger. As with other transportation sectors, local trucking correlates well with the macro market and industry revenues are expected to increase as consumer spending and industrial production increases.

OUR STORY

By aggregating a large number of local truck operators, Instavans will be building a virtual fleet larger than any other local provider. By offering an on-demand platform that offers price transparency, speed to delivery, and a better end-to-end experience for both shippers and truckers, Instavans is increasing the efficiency of supply and demand matching between them.
